When we sat upstairs, our waitress suggested a few seasonal drinks which I really enjoyed. The food was also really tasty. I love the ambiance inside and all of the woodwork.

Expect a moderately high energy vibe during peak times. Quick and friendly! The wait was 30 min, as it appeared so many others also had the idea to visit this morning. My friend chose the BYO quesadilla, which was served with sour cream and salsa. She also got a side of fruit. I opted for the BYO omelette. It comes with a bread option, so I went for one of their in-house biscuits with a side of gravy. The onions were a fine dice and well sautéed in my omelette, which was perfect! And the biscuit was just as yummy as I remembered. Good things to note: You pay at the table, with the option to do tap/Apple pay , which I greatly appreciate. Don't forget to get a couple of biscuits to take home and later enjoy with butter and honey.

(I believe her name was Sidney?). Foods must to come out together. Our family had 2 orders of avocado toast. One arrived first thing, the other was minutes after all food was served. (My wife's was last) As a large profitable franchise, I'd focus on the layout. The front wait area is not comfortable, walking through the dining room has no flow, families are smashed and sat into uncomfortable booths, tables, with no room to walk around when chairs have guests pulled out from tables and enjoying themselves. We were trying to navigate our son's wheelchair to our seat. I'd strongly advised removing front entry checkout. Has no reason whatsoever in today's world. Nothing is efficient. Clogging, bogging, and shuffling out of the way for checkout, arrivals, and yelling party names. (Experience) It can leave a last tarnished memory when existing the restaurant.

I've had two very different experiences with this restaurant -- one solid, one frustrating -- which…read moreaverages out to mediocre at best. My first visit was a takeout order of breakfast tacos that were pretty tasty. Based on that, I was hopeful for a good dine-in experience when I stopped by again recently with my mom for a late breakfast. This is a counter-service spot where you order at the register, grab a number, and seat yourself while they bring the food out. We arrived around 10 AM and it was packed. Despite the crowd, the line moved quickly, but that's where the efficiency ended. Most of the open tables were dirty, so we had to clean one ourselves with napkins. Not ideal. Then came the confusion around drinks. We never received cups after ordering -- despite asking three separate times. First, we were told the cups would come out with our food. When they didn't, we asked the food runner, who said he'd check on it but just disappeared into the kitchen. Finally, we had to go back to the counter a third time just to get cups for the fountain machine. That's a lot of back and forth for something basic. When the food finally arrived, it was lukewarm at best. I ordered two bacon breakfast tacos and a side of smashed potatoes. The tortillas were so hard they were practically inedible -- I ended up tearing pieces off and eating just the egg, bacon, and cheese filling. The potatoes were bland and also cold, like they'd been sitting out too long. It's disappointing because my first experience was solid. I'm hoping this was just an off day, but for nearly $40, this meal didn't feel worth it. The staff seemed overwhelmed and stretched thin, with just a handful of employees trying to juggle too many tasks during a rush. Cleanliness, service, and food temperature all suffered as a result. For now, this location won't be high on my list to return to. There are better breakfast spots in town that don't come with this much hassle.

They were packaged up so nicely, including the requested utensils (we were staying in a hotel) and handed off to me in a big sturdy shopping bag.

The food often comes out lukewarm (I was recently served room temperature mashed potatoes). Their fried chicken is absolutely top notch - it's why I keep coming back. I've also had great soup there and a good BLT. But the mashed potatoes are awful, the hot slaw is drowning in way too much vinegar, green beans are just OK. So the food is sort of a gamble, you need to just find what you like and stick with it. I'm sure the atmosphere is charming to some but it reminds my of my grandparents' 1970s finished basement and it's all just kind of dark and dingy. Still, I like giving my business to long time local restaurants and I'd recommend giving this place a try.

The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, exactly what you want when you're traveling together and getting excited for a big game. The staff was friendly, attentive, and made sure we were taken care of without feeling rushed, which is always appreciated when you're with family. The highlight of the meal was definitely the biscuits and gravy--they were outstanding. The biscuits were soft, fluffy, and fresh, and the gravy was rich, flavorful, and comforting in that classic Southern way Cracker Barrel does so well. It was the kind of meal that leaves everyone at the table happy and satisfied. My daughter really enjoyed her meal and I got to eat her eggs because she don't like eggs so that was an added bonus for me. Overall, it was a great experience from start to finish: good food, great service, and quality time with family.We couldn't have asked for a better stop along the way.

This Cracker Barrel location is under construction, the sign is down, and I wasn't even sure that…read moreit was open. But the parking lot was full and a sign near the door said they were open during remodeling. I placed an order to go, two eggs over medium, three pancakes, and a side of hash brown casserole. Not the healthiest breakfast I realize, but was an occasional treat. One reason that I don't usually order pancakes at restaurants is because I prefer a real maple syrup with my pancakes. Few restaurants actually serve real maple syrup, and I would be willing to pay extra for it, but usually it isn't available. However, I noticed that Cracker Barrel has been advertising 100% pure natural syrup, so I took that to mean real maple syrup. My order was well packaged, and complete with everything I had ordered. The eggs were perfectly cooked to over medium, as I had requested. Hash brown casserole was tasty, as always, and the pancakes were good. The "100% Pure Natural Syrup" turned out to be 50% Vermont Maple Syrup and 50% Cane sugar. It tasted very good, much better than the typical artificially maple - flavored corn syrup and water that passes for pancake syrup at most restaurants. So although the "100% Pure Natural Syrup"wasn't truly 100% real maple syrup, it was very good.
